Due to the size of the bottom ones, the top ones look better. I think if the bottom ones didnt petrude as much, they would look better too

Whichever one you want, not what a bunch of people sitting behind a computer screen want.

The bottom one. Car already looks quite busy at the back, the win pipes make it more so.

A smilie says a thousand words eh? Naat.

Sorry but this thread reeks of look-at-me. And all the other ones about this car. Fair enough if he wants to know what people think, but I know I wouldn't need to ask on a forum to decide which tailpipes I want to go for. There's nothing wrong with what he's doing, I was just giving my opinion like everyone else is. So you can take that smiley and shove it up your arse.

Honestly, I didn't realise what it was about. I just saw V8 and thought it was going to be good.

Nice car, I think it's great. But there's no need for all the threads about it.

Have to say Steve, its your money, your decision, one of which should not be based upon what others think.

Its not a cheap bit of kit, so go with the one YOU like best. There is your answer

i know really its down to me in the end as its my car and my cash but as long time members may know i am useless with making up my mind with cars..

Some people say that Walkinshaw is the AMG of Holden and that Wortec is Brabus

i like the large ovals of the Walkinshaw but dont know if they "cheapen" the rear end up. The twin pipes look great and are just a little bigger than factory standard so dont really look out of place.

problem is they are pretty much identical

power
sound
price

all the same really

not many.. think its 8bhp
more for sound lol

if you go for the £1750 option you get around an extra 35bhp which would bring the total to around 460bhp NA

Could you stretch to the £1750?

Would make more sense.
